Earlier this year I went to a large photo show at Fort Mason in San Francisco. About eighty photography galleries had exhibit space there.
Several people lectured on their photography. I enjoyed both the exhibits and the lectures a lot.
It turns out that there is a similar show with lectures planned for New York City in mid October, this one with about twenty five galleries. It's called The First Annual New York International Photographic Art Exposition, runs from Oct 14-17, at the Metropolitan Pavilion, whatever that is, on 125 W. 18th Street.
Anyway, if anyone likes photography and is interested, the link is

The people who organize it are at the Stephen Cohen Gallery in Los Angeles, a gallery I like. I've never bought a photo there, but have bought several books and enjoyed many exhibits.
